I like Sarah but not enough to use. The meaning is nice and the Biblical association gives it a sense of tradition, history, and heritage. Since it is a name with a long history, I think that it will continue to be used but not to the extent that it was used in the 80s and 90s.

I have known five Sarah/Sara's: three women named Sarah, one named Sara with the Sair-ah pronunciation, and one Sara pronounced SAR-ah. The Sara with the SAR-ah pronunciation was from Turkey.

I prefer Sarah because it seems more closely connected to the Jewish origins and history.
